Arsenal ended their nine-year run without a trophy last season by lifting the FA Cup, and Szczesny has targeted winning the Premier League after the club failed to keep their title challenge going last season.

"We were close to being right near the top last year in the Premier League and we managed to win the FA Cup," he said.

"This year we added some players and we're looking stronger. The confidence is flying high and hopefully this year we can challenge for the Premier League."
